The 2025 Wimbledon men’s singles final is set to be an all-timer. No. 2 seed Carlos Alcaraz will attempt to win his third straight Wimbledon title, competing against world No. 1 Jannik Sinner in an epic rematch on Sunday (11 a.m. ET, ESPN).
The match comes just over a month after Alcaraz bested Sinner in the 2025 French Open. The young Spaniard outlasted Sinner in a marathon match, completing a major comeback in an instant classic.

Now, Alcaraz and Sinner will face off again — with Alcaraz hoping to defend his title, and Sinner hoping to get revenge.
Alcaraz and Sinner’s last meeting
Alcaraz and Sinner’s French Open final was one for the ages, as the two young champions battled in a grueling match that hit the five-and-a-half hour mark — one of the longest men’s finals matches in the Open Era.
The match had everything: five full sets, three tiebreaks and a stunning comeback from Alcaraz. At one point, Sinner was one point away from winning the championship; instead, he dropped three championship points and allowed Alcaraz to force a deciding set.

As Alcaraz, who is known for his ability to win marathon matches, took control of the fifth set, Sinner launched a comeback of his own to send the match to one more tiebreaker. But in the end, it was Alcaraz who took home the trophy, after winning the tiebreak in dominant fashion.
“I’m pretty sure you’re going to be a champion, not once, but many many times,” Alcaraz said of Sinner in his speech after the match. “It’s a privilege to share the court with you in every tournament, making history with you.”
Now, the two will aim to make history once again on the grass.
How Alcaraz and Sinner got here
Like in many of his tournaments, Alcaraz largely cruised through his games to reach the Wimbledon final for the third straight year. After withstanding a nerve-wracking five-set match against Fabio Fognini in the first round, Alcaraz picked up several easy wins to eventually reach the semifinal. There, he defeated top American Taylor Fritz in four sets, finishing the job with a thrilling tiebreak.

As for Sinner, the Italian has dealt with a string of injuries this tournament — both his opponents and his own. In the Round of 16, Sinner looked poised to be upset by Grigor Dimitrov, who beat Sinner in the first two sets before a torn pectoral forced him to retire. Then, in the semifinals, Sinner easily defeated Novak Djokovic in straight sets. Though it was a dominant win, Djokovic was also affected by an injury picked up in the quarterfinals after an awkward fall.
Alcaraz and Sinner head-to-head record
Though Sinner has held the No. 1 ATP ranking since last June, Alcaraz has the upper hand when it comes to playing the Italian.
The two have played each other 12 times, dating back to 2021. Alcaraz has won eight of those matchups, and has bested Sinner in their past five meetings. Sinner has not beaten Alcaraz since 2023.

Importantly, Alcaraz is also a much stronger player on grass than Sinner, who tends to thrive on the hard court. This is the first time that Sinner has ever made it to the Wimbledon final, while Alcaraz has won the past two. Given that Sinner is also dealing with a potential injury, it’s going to be an uphill battle for the Italian to come out on top on Sunday.
Wimbledon men’s singles prize money, purse
In addition to the trophy, there’s quite a bit of money on the line the competition. This year, the winner of the men’s final will take home £3 million or around $4.05 million USD. The runner-up will earn £1.52 million, or $2.05 million USD.

In total, Wimbledon will hand out £53.5 million ($72.2 million USD) in prize money to the winners of the singles and doubles competitions.
The men’s final will take place on Sunday, July 13 at 11 a.m. ET. Match coverage will be available on ESPN, as well as ESPN+. An encore presentation of the match will take place on ABC at 3 p.m. ET.

Salače zlobilo rameno, přesto v předčasně ukončeném závodě v Německu dojel šťastně v desítce
„Je to pro mě docela těžký víkend, včera byla voda, měl jsem menší pád, hnul jsem si s ramenem a není to úplně ideální, je to už třetí den,“ pravil Salač před startem závodu do kamery TV Nova.V deštivé sobotní kvalifikaci si na německé dráze nedaleko hranic s Českem vyjel čtrnáctou příčku, ze které se po startu dostal o dvě pozice vpřed. Postupně ale začal klesat pořadím a pendloval kolem poslední bodované patnácté pozice.Směrem kupředu mu ale pomohly dva karamboly jezdců před nimi. Nejprve se srazil David Alonso s Diogem Moreirou a čtyři kola před koncem Albert Arenas s Marcosem Ramírezem. Právě po jejich srážce byl závod předčasně ukončen. Salač tak dojel posedmé z dosavadních jedenácti závodů v první desítce. Na Sachsenringu vyhrál Turek Deniz Öncü, jenž se nedlouho po startu ze šesté pozice dostal do čela a skoro celou dobu mu dýchal na záda Belgičan Barry Baltus. Třetí finišoval Salačův stájový […]
